Standardized allergenic extract from wasp venom is used in specific immunotherapy for people allergic to wasp stings. This treatment aims to reduce the immune system's sensitivity to the venom, lowering the risk of severe allergic reactions, including anaphylactic shock. Immunotherapy is carried out under strict medical supervision over a long period.

The extract is administered by subcutaneous injections, with progressively increasing doses until a maintenance dose is reached. The treatment schedule is tailored to each patient, depending on individual response and risk of adverse reactions.

Side effects may include local reactions at the injection site (redness, swelling, pain) or systemic reactions such as hives, difficulty breathing, or, rarely, severe reactions. Any unusual symptoms should be reported to the doctor immediately.

Immunotherapy with wasp venom extract can provide long-term protection against severe allergic reactions. Adhering to the treatment schedule and careful monitoring are essential for the safety and effectiveness of the therapy.
